Finding The Right Solution for Radius Measurements
When looking for the best way to measure radius (R) / inner diameter, there are a number of important factors to consider, including the type of measurement system and the installation environment. Selecting equipment that doesn't adequately meet your needs can lead to insufficient precision and increased man-hours during production, so choosing the right equipment is important. This site is designed to help you discover the best way to perform radius/ inner diameter measurements with confidence.
Hole diameters are measured by bending the optical axes of two sensor heads 90° using a prism.
KEY POINTS
The laser beams travel parallel through the center of the hole and strike prisms to reflect on to opposite inner walls. The workpiece can be rotated to measure roundness and eccentricity.
